B Correct answer
Explanation

The cheetah is the fastest land animal, capable of reaching speeds up to 112-120 km/h (70-75 mph) in short bursts. Unlike lions (which rely on group hunting) or deer and springboks (which are prey animals), cheetahs have evolved specifically for speed with lightweight bodies, non-retractable claws, and flexible spines.
